On November 17, 1973, Pauley Pavilion swapped fast breaks for free-flowing jams as the Grateful Dead rolled into UCLA. Bruins fans—including the legend Bill Walton—traded their blue and gold for tie-dye, diving headfirst into a set packed with Me and My Uncle, Here Comes Sunshine, and an absolute monster Playing in the Band > Uncle John’s Band > Morning Dew > Uncle John’s Band > Playing in the Band sandwich. Walton, in the middle of leading UCLA to yet another dominant season, has never been shy about his love for the Dead, and you just know he was in that crowd, soaking it all in. For one night, UCLA’s laid-back, sun-soaked vibe met the Dead’s freewheeling energy, and the result was pure magic. Whether you were a Deadhead, a curious student, or just someone looking for a good time, that show cemented its place as a legendary moment in Pauley’s history.
